Skip is still in the kennel waiting for a foster or forever home.  He is looking for a home that can continue his training and provide guidance and leadership.  Skip spent some time at The Perfect Pooch training center in King of Prussia, PA and his adoption comes with continued training at this location.  Please apply today if you can provide a foster or forever home for Skip!

Skip is a 3.5 year old male neutered boxer that is coming back to rescue to find another loving home. Skip is your typical wiggly boxer that loves to jump up and give hugs and kisses. He's had quite a hard start in life and found a great owner to care for him and love him, but sadly he's no longer able to keep Skip.

Skip currently visits the dog park a few times a week and generally does well with other friendly dogs. He's also reported to be good with cats but doesn't currently live with one. He doesn't like the crate and prefers someone to be around, hanging out with him, most of the time. He likes belly rubs and playing just like every boxer! Skip can get nervous around people arguing so he would love a household that is relatively calm, quite and stable. He's a great dog that would love to meet you today, so fill out the adoption application today!

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please first read our Adoption Procedure, by clicking on the link at the top of this page, then fill out an online application.

Boxers and Applicants are not matched on a first come, first served basis. Not all applications are approved. On average, it takes between a week and 1 month to adopt a Rescue Boxer to an approved applicant, depending on your personal circumstances and flexibility.  

Matching Boxers suitable for placement with younger children, other dogs, cats, and special needs, yours and theirs, increases the application review time and adoption time.  

And yes, we realize that the Boxer you may have your heart set on, may be adopted before you're approved.   Should your first choices all ready found their forever home, we want you to advise us as to other dogs you are interested in at Adoptions@AdoptABoxerRescue.com .  Or let us suggest a few that we feel will match your home.  That is what we are good at.   And be happy for the ones that have been placed... and know that there are way too many fantastic dogs waiting in their place.

Our non-profit organization is wholly comprised of hard-working volunteers whose only reward is seeing our wonderful Boxers placed in loving, permanent homes and given another chance for a happy life. Our process may seem slow, but if you are patient, we will try to provide you with a devoted, loving companion - a Boxer.

We hope you feel that the right Boxer is worth waiting for.
